Note: This story contains spoilers from “The Traitors” Season 3, Episode 11.
After a season full of alliances and traitor-on-traitor fighting, “The Traitors” Season 3 has revealed its winner(s).
The Season 3 finale picked up after last week’s tense roundtable, which saw suspicion on traitor Danielle Reyes begin to build. Despite Reyes just reconnecting with “Big Brother” co-star Britney Haynes and recruiting her to be her fellow traitor, Haynes turned her back on Reyes by voting her out the roundtable, leaving Reyes to be banished and reveal her true identity as a traitor.
Haynes was revealed as the winner of the seer challenge, and invited former “Bachelorette” Gabby Windey to a private dinner where Windey revealed her identity as a faithful. Haynes decided to play it safe, and next morning, told the remaining players — Dylan Efron, Dolores Catania and Ivar Mountbatten — that Windey was a faithful.
Still, suspicion mounted on Haynes, especially given Reyes’ reaction to her betrayal at the last roundtable, leading Haynes to be banished during the finale roundtable by a unanimous vote. With the new rules in place, Haynes was instructed not to reveal whether she was a faithful or a traitor upon her exit, leaving the remaining players to use their gut intuition on whether or not there were any traitors left.
With just four players left — all faithfuls — Catania, Efron, Windey and Mountbatten headed to the truth of fire, and decided individually whether they wanted to end the game with the belief that there are no traitors among them, or whether they wanted to banish another player they thought was a traitor. Miraculously, all four finalists voted to end the game, and subsequently revealed their identities as faithfuls.
Like last season, when CT Tamburello and Trishelle Cannatella won, Season 3 saw a win for the faithfuls, who successful banished all traitors before the final rounf.
With the prize pot brought up to $204,300 from the final challenge, Catania, Efron, Windey and Mountbatten won “The Traitors” Season 3. The four-way split brings each winner’s total to $51,075 — before taxes.
“The Traitors” Seasons 1-3 are now streaming on Peacock.
